5 years after the 1st self-titled album, FUNERALIUM is back with "Deceived Idealism"
More ferocious than before, driven by hate and disgust, the 5 doomed brethren of FUNERALIUM unleash their hatred with a heaviness and a might more impressive than ever.
Clocking at 88 minutes, "Deceived Idealism" is relentless, bleak and crushing. This complex monolith of EXTREME DOOM has trodden new paths, drawing its influences from Doom Metal and old-school Black Metal, but also filthy death metal and dark metal passages.
FUNERALIUM hasn't limited itself to a particular sub-genre but has drunk from the darkest and fierciest chalices of extreme metal.
Still featuring Marquis' unique and sickening vokills, Berzerk'r diabolical guitar intricacies, the band now also displays the 2 complementary basses of Asmael & Charlesward which pummel the senses and the gnawing punishing drums of ADKshN.
With a dozen concerts, the cohesion of the band -like a live Leviathan- is undeniable.

"Deceived Idealism" will be released in October on 2CDs by WEIRD TRUTH and on DLP this Fall by OSTRA RECORDS. A limited "die hard version" will also be available through OSTRA RECORDS exclusively.

Come taste on Youtube a teaser of "Deceived Idealism" and discover the new mefitic sound of FUNERALIUM

Like I told Jo the other night, I think this sounds absolutely fantastic! I've been a fan since the demo, kind of felt that the first album was a little too polished sounding for the style (great songs though), but it sounds like everything has fallen perfectly into place with this one! Very excited to hear the whole thing!

Is this your band asmael? I have your first album, great stuff. Will definitely pick this up - I regret not getting the vinyl version of the last one, is it totally oop? I would like to upgrade

The first album is still available on vinyl from me.

I wasnt part of the original line-up so I'm not on the 1st album.

Funeralium was kinda decaying but 4 years ago, Marquis decided to hire a new drummer and another bassist/back vocalist and I joined the band.
We started compose new material. We had other line-up issues afterwards (guitarist left and then returned a year after, original bassist left so we had to hire a new second bassist) but now it's the solid line-up the one that recorded the new full-length.

The 1st DLP is still available. Not much copies left. Though the new one will be much more elaborate, musically, visually and "packagingly"
So my advice is wait for OSTRA RECORDS to release the new beast and get them both from there! _________________DISJECTA MEMBRAE plays Torture Doom

The demo crushed all! But hardly listened to the debut, must give it a listen this night. Curious to the new album.

1st album is in the same vein as the demo.
The new album rather different, as explained in the text above, check the trailer, you'll understand!_________________DISJECTA MEMBRAE plays Torture Doom
FUNERALIUM plays Extreme Doom
ABJVRATION plays Death Doom

Trailer sounds nice, it reminded me that i still need to buy your debut LP!
I will probably order both from Ostra in the following days, all releases that i've got from them are amazing!! (especially the Mournful congregation box!!)_________________http://www.discogs.com/seller/C.T.A.W.B.

I remember I had the Funeralium demo back in 05 or so...I wanted to like it, but it never really stuck with me, maybe they have improved since then, so I might check this out._________________"By all evidence we are in the world to do nothing."
